The Jefferson Township Police Department has been participating each year in the National Night Out Program sponsored by National Association of Town Watch.

The event is primarily designed to heighten crime & drug prevention awareness and to strengthen neighborhood spirit & police-community relations.

Jefferson Township's National Night Out celebration is held on the first Wednesday of August each year at the Municipal Complex. Food and refreshments are available, and the event involves displays from all of the emergency services organizations within the municipality, a DJ, Petting Zoo, Bounce Houses, and other fun activities that bring the community together.
